The fact that we continue reflecting the reality inward, instead of accepting that everything goes outward from our mind is for me a bit funny.

Finding the metaphors in each epoch that best represented the how-the-"brain"-works idea to describe really well what are really the limits of what we see impose to us.

Looking at it in the other way around, all these innovations we surround ourselves with are the purest expression our minds can express. Who knows what we'll be capable of in the near and the far-far future.

Either way, I agree metaphors are a great tool to position ourself in a better place, in space and time if we like. There's a great book about... the metaphors we live by I mentioned somewhere before.
